Food Scene

There is plenty to taste and experience in Jersey City Heights! Thanks to the diverse neighborhood, you can have classic Italian to Colombian pastries!
I enjoy eating at Fox & Crow because it's a convenient 5 minute walk and they offer the best burgers in town. They offer a unique range of toppings for the burgers and are one of the few spots you can order a habanero sauce for your chicken wings!

If you're looking for another bar scene around the congress st area, you can visit CorckScrew! They offer some of the best wings I have tasted in a long time. They also have plenty beers on tap and enough tvs to watch sporting events.

Great cosy restaurant perfectly located two building next door! They offer great italian food at a the pricer end! They serve small amount of food but packed with a ton of flavor! The best part of the restaurant is the opportunity to bring your own alcohol during your stay! Make sure to book in advance because weekend are usually packed!

If you're looking to satisfy your sweet tooth, there is not better spot than Dulce de leche bakery. This spanish inspired pastry store offers plenty of variation among their sweets. Every time I visit, I also go with the lime pie (can't go wrong with it!)

Definitely one of my favorite spots in Jersey Heights. This place honestly will cook whatever you request (even if it's off menu). I can't tell you the amount of times I have visited this location and requested a unique dish and they would always go about making it! If you're looking for their speciality, ask for their carnitas tacos!

Drinks & Nightlife

Great Bar during the day time, but it also turns into a night club. Great atmosphere to drink at and they have a dance floor upstairs
